Back in September, when we were all buying up new Star Wars stuff, I said on the podcast that I hoped we were all going to like the new movie. After all, it would kind of suck to spend money on things attached to a movie we didn't like.

Well, now we've seen The Force Awakens (many of us have seen it more than once), and the reactions have been mostly positive. What does that mean? It means we're all waiting for the next stuff to come out!

For me, I'm ready to add some Rey figures that include the lightsaber, and I want a Maz Kanata figure asap. However, I am all about the geek tees, and I love some of the Funko Pop shirts I've seen (and acquired) in recent weeks.

So, you can imagine my excitement when I realized new The Force Awakens Funko Pop tees are going to be coming out this month!

You've probably seen Funko Pop tees appear in stores like Hot Topic, and I've already spotted a few that are tied to the original trilogy. As with other merchandise waves to come, I hope we'll see Rey and Finn shirts as well. I think a Rey on her speeder and Finn in his stormtrooper armor would look quite cool.

For now, this group looks awesome, and they're scheduled to be hitting stores later this month. While I'm definitely not in low supply of Star Wars shirts, I love the Poe Dameron, the Captain Phasma and the grey BB-8 shirts.

Granted, I have a BB-8, Captain Phasma and a Poe Dameron X-Wing shirt...but they don't look like those!

​Yeah, this is what Star Wars does to people.

I love the Marvel themed Funko Tees I've received from the Collector Corps boxes, so a couple of Star wars shirts would be welcome additions. That's it! I don't have any Star Wars FUNKO shirts. That's a perfectly legit reason to add them to my t-shirt stock.

Right?
